Seedlings take a couple of teaspoons per day along with misting the dome they’re under. Once they are in veg I sprinkle water (damp only) and let the plant work for it.

Yep roots usually expand first, then they start growing a little more rapidly.

Good to hear cuz I’ve been getting “plant envy” looking at others 8-10 day old seedlings lol. Haven’t been this concerned over normal growth patterns since I had my first daughter lol

Yep, it’s completely normal and she looks very healthy. You’ll start to see some above soil growth soon, just be patient.

Ok I just finished up in “lab” tonight and decided to run a few tests to get a better idea what’s going on with my plant. Here are the results
PH going in 5.8
Ph from run off 6.7
TDS going in 146ppm
TDS from run off 222 ppm.
I did not flush the coco before use as i was under the impression the canna coco bags ( not bricks) was already buffered. Should I flush the coco now?

Yeah I would just to bring it down to a more accessible range for the plant to uptake nutrients.

What’s the best way to do that ? Run a bunch of 5.8 water through it at once?

Yeah, start with 3 times the pot size and see where you’re at with the runoff

You can also use a flushing agent like Sledgehammer or Florakleen. TDS isn’t bad but PH is a bit high. Not bad though.
I’m going with my gut here and switching up my light source. I’m going to try a 85 watt (actual) 6500k cfl bulb. Something about this plant reminds me of a plant trying to grow without enough light. Maybe my led just doesn’t have enough blue. Seems like a lot of red diodes . Idk. can’t hurt to try something new.

Too light green. Looks to be N deficient. How’s ph?
I’m putting in 5.8 distilled water with nutes yet. Run off is 6,7 run off is 222ppm. Should I flush and start feeding? I’m going to be using sensi ph perfect for coco b52 and voodoo juice.
That is a very strange looking green. What is your Ph, and what kind of soil is she in?
Your run off is pretty high for coco. You need to get the Ph under control to 5.8.

I’m going to flush tonight. I watered the other day when I took those readings and wanted to give it a day to dry out so I don’t drown it
